Summary

I have worked the last 45 years in construction. I've helped build restaurants houses from putting sanitary sewer lines, the finishing under building with trim I'm experienced in all phases of construction. I've been around it and I am the type of person that you show me one time and I can do it. I've always prided myself with my hard work. I can operate machinery or put in the kitchen sink. I've been out of work for some time doing a little battle with cancer which is in remission now and I would really love to get back to work.
